All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them."

Once upon a time I used to imagine ridiculous things – places that I wanted to go, where I’d live, what I’d drive, people I’d be around. I had a whole vision of what life would be like. I imagined that this would bring me fulfillment, if not joy. A few years ago during a fast, I remembered this, and I recall hearing, crystal clear, the voice of God saying something that I should’ve held on to, but it was challenging at that time. Dare I say, I think God sometimes, reminds me of things that I don’t feel I have the capacity to hold because life is lifing extremely hard.
But I’ve just remembered again. I recalled how I imagined impossible, ridiculous things, and at that time, I sincerely believed God was limitless and nothing was impossible for him to do. But as life has become exceptionally mundane and banal, I’m inspired to pursue those things. We always come to a crossroads of some sort in life: where you either believe that there’s more to life than the mundane routine you find yourself in, leading you to take the uncertain road; or you choose the safe and comfortable route, where your ridiculous imaginations remain just that--imaginations.
I think the road you choose is only wrong if you don’t truly desire it. Let it be done according to your faith. Before, I thought this was somewhat sad, but I think it’s up to you what you want out of life, to some degree. Of course, there are a lot of things that you can’t control; things that barrel you into a path that you don’t want and have to accept. I’m not a stranger to this that’s why I’m writing about it. So, despite this, what can I choose for myself? What do I truly want? And despite how far-fetched, which vision will I commit to pursuing?
